2019/2020 Most Valuable Staffers

May 14, 2020

Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the Hawaii High School Journalism Awards have been postponed indefinitely. In the past, each school staff that participated selected a Most Valuable Staffer. That staffer was recognized at a banquet and his/her photograph was published in the Star Advertiser. Hawaii Scholastic Journalism Association wants to recognize these staffers here. Even if your staff did not enter HHSJA, we’d love to publish a photo of your most valuable staffer. Send photos to [email protected] You can include a brief write-up about the student if you want. As photos are submitted, we will update this story.

Freshman An Vo was selected as McKinley High School's Most Valuable Staffer for school year 2019-2020. This was his first year as a journalist and he was a quick study. He really showed his stuff, though, during the fourth quarter when the staff had to produce The Pinion virtually. It turns out Vo is quite talented with InDesign.
